# Software Requirements (Version 2.0.1) 

 ## 1  Purpose 

 This page captures the **mandatory hardware and signal‑level requirements** for the upcoming firmware/software release of the Firmware.    It serves as a reference for testers, installers and customers to verify that their hardware stack and wiring meet the minimum specifications before flashing the new version. 

 ## 2  Hardware Prerequisites 

 * **Gearbox Control Unit (GCU):** Devices with serial numbers GCU2202001 and up require a hardware upgrade to address some of the manufacturing isues *(Mandatory)* 
 * **Signal‑conditioner board:** Required only when interfacing with **DCT GS7D36SG** speed sensors. *(Mandatory for DCT GS7D36SG installations)* 


 ## 3  Required Signal Inputs 

 | Signal                                            | Source                                | Connection Method                       | Notes                                   | 
 | ----------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | 
 | **Brake‑pedal position**                          | Hydraulic switch or position sensor | Analog IN **or** CAN                    | On/Off signal                           | 
 | **Engine RPM**                                    | Crank/Cam sensor or ECU               | Frequency IN **or** CAN                 |                                         | 
 | **Throttle position (TPS)**                       | ECU / DBW                             | Analog IN **or** CAN                    |                                         | 
 | **Accelerator pedal position sensor (PPS)**       | ECU                                   | Analog IN **or** CAN                    |                                         | 
 | **MAP sensor**                                    | ECU                                   | Analog IN **or** CAN                    | kPa                                     | 
 | **Injector pulse width** *or* **Engine torque** | ECU                                   | Frequency IN (PW) **or** CAN (torque) | Provide either PW (µs) or torque (Nm) | 


 ## 4  DCT GS7D36SG‑Specific Requirements 

 * Install the **signal‑conditioner board** between the gearbox speed sensors and the GCU.
